Helium-3 has been known for decades to be a useful isotope for nuclear fusion. 

But the dynamic here for lunar meaning is definitely giving Phos-5 vibes. @ryanfmason

@MazzucatoM 💭A better fusion option?

Dr Ernesto Mazzucato outlines the theory of a new proposed reactor, based on the Spitzer Model-C Stellarator reactor. A key challenge for this reactor is the use of Helium-3 (3He), a rare isotope scarcely found on Earth and needed in large quantities. https://t.co/G4bHFbCqH9

@MazzucatoM 🌖Helium-3 (3He), while rare on Earth, is found in abundance on the Moon.

Mining the required 3He on the moon would be very expensive, but as Dr Ernesto Mazzucato highlights, the payback and energy production could "solve humanity's energy demand for at least 10,000 years". https://t.co/I0tZe4oUvh

If Helium-3 is the tech, Phos-5 is the lore. Gotta have both to build the future
